  1. All values were expressed as mean ± S.E.M (n = 3). (*) indicates statistically significant difference from the respective group (**p < 0.01) using ANOVA, followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test. a = when compared with healthy control, b = when compared with diabetic control. Group I = Healthy control, Group II = Diabetic control, Group III = Diabetic control + 10 mg/kg of gliclazide, Group IV = Diabetic control + 100 mg/kg CRME, Group V = Diabetic control + 200 mg/kg CRME, Group VI = Diabetic control + 400 mg/kg CRME
